Mrs. Chappell Makes Progress Report

Mrs. William Chappell, Local Resource Chairman, makes this interesting progress report on the work of her committee on the study of the Board of Public Parks and Recreation:

Our local project . . . began in September with a visit by Leaguers to the Board's attractive building next to City Hall. Mr. Ted Nobriga, Acting Superintendent, welcomed committee chairmen who will study various phases of the Board's functions, and Dr. Katsumi Kometani, Chairman of the Board, introduced the Leaguers at the Board meeting. League members attending Parks Board meetings, which are open to the public, report great interest in learning first hand how its projects are started. Committee chairmen Mrs. Murray Gart, Miss Oei Maehara, Mrs. Paul Miho, and Miss Leona Ross are amassing background material in typical League fashion before starting interviews with department heads at the Board's offices.
